The bureau is predicting cloud and a very high chance of rain for the western district on Saturday.
Snow as low as 500 metres is expected during Saturday, causing hazardous conditions for bushwalkers.
A ridge of high pressure, from a high centred over the Bight, will gradually move over the state on Sunday and will persist on Monday.
